A Catholic parody of Toby Keith's classic country song titled "I Love This Bar"
Story behind the song
I Love St. Barts came about as an inspiration I received as I was walking around the track one morning. I Love This Bar was on my I-pod and it occurred to me that all types of people come to a church too and it might be fun to laugh at ourselves by writing a parody of this song.

(I Love This Bar Parody Lyrics)
1/26/16
Good morning
Welcome
Hi kids, looks like beach time after church huh?
VERSE 1
We got sinners, we got believers
Advocates and Accusers
And we got ChrEasters, Charismatics,
Apostolic alcoholics
And even though the doctrine cant be a-la-carte
A.., A.., A.., Amen, I love St. Barts
VERSE 2
We got converts we got dozers
Fathers, Mothers, even blood donors
And we got heretics, we got mystics
Melancholic workaholics
And a blest art junkyard with a small wine bar
A.., A.., A.., Amen, I love St. Barts
CHORUS
I love St. Barts, its my kind of grace
Just splash-in in the fountain helps me feel His warm embrace
It aint that hard, sets me apart
A.., A.., A.., Amen, I love St. Barts
VERSE 3
Ill see brilliant brides and the holy I Am
an old pipe organ and a real big band
Well have Abraham, well have Elohim
And Ill even see Cherubim, Seraphim
Everywhere youll look the Fathers love will be seen
Its all right there in John, three sixteen
Yes it is
BRIDGE
I like my Cross (I like my Cross)
I like my Bible... (I like my Bible)
I like Eucharistic Adoration
I like a Chaplet now and then
CHORUS
But I love St. Barts, its my kind of grace
The Body, Blood at our meal, brings His kingdom to this place
It aint that hard, sets us apart
A.., A.., A.., Amen, I love St. Barts
A.., A.., A.., Amen, I love St. Barts
Outro
Play it out boys
Announcements r over, gotta start livin it
(whistle melody)
A.., A.., A.., Amen, I love St. Barts
I just love St. Barts
